Emir of Kano, two sons flown to London for treatment after attack

The Emir
of Kano, and his two sons who were wounded during yesterday's attack by unknown gunmen along the popular Zoo Road in Kano metropolis have been transported to
a London hospital for medical attention.

A private plane carrying
them alongside some aides and relatives departed the Aminu Kano
International Airport this afternoon.

why r they seeking treatment in london? thot they dont like western things...he should hv stayed bk home& be treated with local herbs.btw these foreign hospitals must be tired of seeing our leaders in their place. wish him well sha

All this flying abroad is rather annoying because lots of poor Nigerians die everyday for lack of proper medical attention. Or do we all have to be Governors or Emirs or First Ladies to deserve it?Why Some Men Behave Like Drama Queen

Bonario is it that u can't compose good sentence? U have a very poor writting skill....it's quite an unfurtunate incedent not IT WAS QUITE!! Better spend more time studying your brighter grammer than stalking every linda's post

Come on man Bonario..after insinuating that ir was good for them in the last post saying "The chicken has come to roost" now you are sympathizing..hopefully you have just come to your senses and not let sentiments cloud your thoughts...

NYC-1 says: I hope they recover as soon as possible. On the other hand, are Nigerian doctors not good enough to treat certain class of people? I hiss at this style of life the ruling class have come to embrace. They live as if life is meant for them alone to have all the essentialities. If you guys can't fix the minimal things in Niaja to create some sense of independence, then you can as well forget that you have a System.

What will a poor man do if he finds himself in the same situation as the Emir's sons? I wish his sons well; but you guys who call yourselves the ruling class are causing more harm than good in Nigeria. I know the Emir might be an illitrate(perhaps, from military family) and may not be able to read this,however, let me ask this question: Suppose your sons situation is a race against time and immediate medical attention is needed, do you think that they will make it travelling for 6 hours to London?

Every time fly abroad for treatment whereas we can afford to build first class hospitals + employ specialist Doctors in Abuja and all other state capitals but our corrupt politicians will rather prefer to line their pockets.Shame of a country.

they fail to condemn this people when they are killing innocent people in the name of their religion,all of them kept quite thinking they are safe now this people the jihadist that they are covering are now turning the guns on them now let see how the drama unfolding.we are waiting for part 2

Lolz u see ur life,the grammatical blunders in ur supposed correction,far surpassed even my comment. Owk Whole ShowYinka point of misconception,I used was because the incident happened in the past,I was referring to what brought about them been flown abroad for medical attention.Ehen to ur own medicineUnfortunate,not unfurtunate.Is it that u can't construct a good sentence.Incident,not incedent.Plz who needs brighter grammer the most???? Looolz

So,let me get this right...they went abroad 4medical reasons?I'd like to know if they helped any of the BH victims who couldn't pay their (LOCAL)hospital bills...They didn't?Of course not!let's hope then that this assault won't be carried out again...

They criticise western innovations and way of life but their traditional and spiritual leaders/rulers buy roll royces and bentleys worth millions of naira...now their being flown to the "west" for "treatment"....it was only a matter of time. We can pray for Nigeria from now till 2mr but it won't change what will eventually happen.

Why do people lament all the time when someone travels abroad for treatment,is it ur money they travelled with.even regular people travel abroad for health reasons. Is it the emir or his sons that will fix the healthcare system in the country. People should just wish him recovery and stop dwelling on where he is being treated. Kai nigerians have become so insensitive to life.

Hmm naija pple wit dis ur haters u beta get life nd leave those pple alone u can't av two thgz at a time or doing two thg at a time u can be a haters nd wanna become famous lke d person u re hatg on its impossible God is not a human being he will judge accordg to ur deed

@ All most of you don't understd the fight and problems of nigeria.. I don't blame some commentators here cause is subject to their unserstanding and ignorance .... 1st some of u nid to understd that the NORTHERN EMIRS, SULTAN AND KINGS ARE EDUCATED DAN UR FATHERS.. 80% of this KINGS never supported Religious Killings or any form of voilence in anyway..Northern crisis is foiled by some politicians and religious leaders..Most of you don't knw that presently in maidiguri gunshot is refer to as RINGING TONE and BOMB is called FLASHING...Nigeria government is the genesis of all this problem cause all this people took arms when dey feel neglected and also d c the corruptiong in Government.

But what part of your brain is still functioning that you cannot understand and appreciate english grammar , people just express their thoughts from a vernacular point of view , just goes to show that it is not only our leaders that are daft as well . I will enjoin you to start an adult education class near your house .

Obviously the CBN Gov Sanusi Lamido wants to have them killed, he hasn't been hiding his ambitions. God help us. Why is the sultan flying on the same plane as his heirs. The next thing you know SLS will put bomb on it.

Lol @ d juju, I wonder why dey have to travel our 4 medical attention. Tot is against their religion. Dis is 4 DEM to know dat they ar not save even with a million aids.JONATHAN and minister of health plzzzzzzz equip our hospitals and give us employment. bikokwanu!!!

Very funny he's flown abroad for med treatment with 2sons in a hungry and ignorant people sorrounding him...sha he should thank God he was not killed.the North will soon see what they have done to their mother land..is emir yesterday let see who will be the next..!!

So sad that some fools are ranting over nonsense grammatical blunders here rather than open their minds to the issue at hand.I do not think it`s nigerians who are carrying out all these evil attacks as i am sure the northerners would not attack their emir. I pray our government tightens security at the border where these miscreants come in through.

AND THEY HAD THE ODERSITY TO PRODCAST IT THAT THEY TOOK THEM TO LONDON!!!WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DOCTORS AND HOSPITALS IN NIGERIA? OR DON'T THEY EXIST ANY LONGER. SAME WITH THE FIRST LADY AND OTHERWISE ABI. WE THE POOR WOULD HAVE TO RECEIVE THE MENAIL TREATMENT HERE IN NIGER COS THE GOVT HAVE REFUSED TO UPDATE HOSPITALS AS THEY'LL RATHER SEE US DIE THAN PROVIDE ADEQUATE MEDICAL CARE FOR THE POOR.
